Drawn from the extensive holdings of the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan, this exhibition illustrates the rich history of the city of Detroit through maps, letters, prints, and photographs. From its beginnings as a French outpost to its emergence as a manufacturing powerhouse, the exhibition will focus on the city's growth, its people, and its legacy. In addition to the riches in this exhibition, docents will explore connections to Detroit found in the permanent collections.
